What Causes Nose Bleeding After Exposure To Bleach?
Hello, I was cleaning the bathroom with bleach and after I had finished I sat down and my nose starting bleeding out . Does this happen when using bleach ? Because it was my first time using it, and i was cleaning the bathroom for a good 40 minutes.

Hello,
This is not a normal reaction while cleaning with bleach. Your nasal mucosal linning got irritated up to the point it started to bleed.
You should not use it anymore. Rinse your nose with saline water. Get to fresh air soon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
